I currently have the Kraken X61 cooler and was wondering what's the best option when installing my new CPU in regards to thermal paste. When I first got this cooler and processor I used the pre-applied paste which I've had no temperature issues with.
Should I:
1. Just use the paste that is still on the cooler
2. Apply new paste on to the CPU as well as keeping the existing paste on the cooler
3. Remove the paste from the cooler and apply the new paste
Apologies for any spelling or grammar, typing this on my phone on the go!
